Can You Change the First Day of the Week in Microsoft Bookings?

Microsoft Bookings does not always expose a dedicated first-day-of-week control. Check the related Outlook calendar preference, then verify whether the Bookings view follows it.

Confirm the Account, Product, and Expected Result

Confirm the owning account, required permissions, affected files or services, and the exact outcome you need. Keep a backup when the task changes local content or removes access.

Quick Supported Workflow

First, open Microsoft Bookings and check the calendar view to confirm which day is currently displayed first. Next, in Outlook on the web, open Settings > Calendar > View and set First day of the week to the preferred day, and verify the final state before changing any backup or secondary account.

Check and Adjust the Week Start in Microsoft Bookings

1. Open Microsoft Bookings and check the calendar view to confirm which day is currently displayed first
2. In Outlook on the web, open Settings > Calendar > View and set First day of the week to the preferred day
3. Refresh Bookings or sign out and back in to see whether the calendar follows the updated regional calendar preference
4. If Bookings still starts on Sunday, treat it as a current interface limitation rather than repeatedly changing unrelated settings
5. Use the Feedback option in Microsoft 365 or Bookings to request a dedicated first-day setting, and document the limitation for staff

After the final step, reopen the affected app, portal, file, or account page and confirm the exact status or behavior described in the title.

WPS Office: A Free Alternative for Local Office Work

WPS Office cannot directly change Microsoft-side account, billing, subscription, activation, tenant, OneDrive service, or SharePoint permission state. Those changes must be completed in the appropriate Microsoft portal.

For local productivity, WPS Office is a free Microsoft Office-compatible alternative with Writer, Spreadsheets, Presentation, and PDF tools. It opens and saves major formats including DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, and PDF through a familiar, streamlined interface that supports a smooth everyday migration.

Test advanced macros, add-ins, external connections, sensitivity controls, and Microsoft-only cloud integrations on a copy before moving a critical workflow.

Practical Checks That Prevent a Repeat

• Record which account, app, and file owns the workflow
• Keep a verified backup before removing access, changing ownership, or replacing a local file
• Apply high-impact changes to one test item or user before expanding the scope
• Save confirmation numbers, dates, and screenshots of the final settings when they affect billing, security, or permissions
